Process of Elimination

Mastering the Process of Elimination

If you’re unsure about an answer, start by eliminating choices that are definitely wrong. This increases your chances of picking the correct answer from the remaining options.

Steps to Use This Strategy

  • Cross out answers that don’t fit the context.
  • Compare the remaining choices carefully.
  • Don’t leave any question blank—guess if you have to!

This strategy is not just for tests, but also helps you make decisions in real life by narrowing down your options.

Examples

  • Eliminating choices that are opposite in meaning to the question word.

  • Crossing off answers that don’t make sense in the sentence.
